Symptoms

Navigate to VxRail plugin physical view page, node health status shows "Critical" 

Cause

VxRail Manager sends a request to retrieve the boot device status from iDRAC, but iDRAC return the status as "Null."This is an iDRAC issue, and VxRail manager cannot handle such value, so physical view displays Node health as "Critical."Check from iDRAC TSR log, the boot device status is "Unknown"

Resolution

Please check from iDRAC, if the boot device remaining Endurance is less 5%, or there are other hardware error reported, it means this is a true positive "Critical" status, must replace the hardware.If the boot device status shows "Unknown," it means this is a false positive "Critical" status, please ignore it.
